Deconstructing an ethical dilemma

Please find any column online by The Ethicist from the New York Times.  Read the dilemma and the answer. Copy  and paste them onto the blog using a smaller font. Then, in a larger font,  please deconstruct the column using ToK strategies, Ways of  Knowing, Areas of Knowledge, the difference between morality and ethics, bias, etc. Talk about what details were selected  and what was left out, how competing ideas were weighed, etc.  Definitely mention if there's other information you would need to know before making a judgment. 

After you deconstruct everything you can deconstruct, then reconstruct by saying to what extent you agree with The Ethicists's conclusion and why or why not.
